Concerns have begun to mount as former United States President, Bill Clinton, is hospitalized over his health issues.

This was confirmed in a statement issued on Monday by Clinton’s deputy chief of staff Angel Urena.

Urine, however, confirmed that the former president remains in high spirits despite the health concerns.

The statement reads in part: “President Clinton was admitted to Georgetown University Medical Center this afternoon for testing and observation after developing a fever.”

It would be recalled that Clinton was previously hospitalized for five nights in October 2021 due to a blood infection.

In 2004, at age 58, he underwent a quadruple bypass operation after doctors found signs of extensive heart disease. He had stents implanted in his coronary artery six years later.

The health scare motivated him to make lifestyle changes, including adopting a vegetarian diet, and he has since spoken publicly about his efforts.

Also, Clinton tested positive for Covid-19 in November 2022.

Clinton, who led the United States for two presidential terms from 1993-2001, is the second-youngest living US president.
